What's the best way to get my weekly comic strip syndicated?Tue, 06 Feb 2007 10:10:58 -0800
IANAC: Maybe revamp your site a little. The comics are a little too small to read easily (I wear glasses but I'm really young so I imagine people out there agree with me) and it's silly to have to load the page then load the comic--most users are quite lazy.Tue, 06 Feb 2007 10:21:57 -0800
Have you approached Creators Syndicate? There are some agents who handle cartoonists, but you may have to do legwork to find them. You should contact the editor of the newsaper you are published in and see if they can provide you with a marketing contact for whomever provides other cartoons they run.Tue, 06 Feb 2007 10:43:39 -0800
If by "major alt-weeklies" you just meant a handful, you should send something (a sample postcard's great.) to everyone in this directory.Tue, 06 Feb 2007 11:13:16 -0800
Might I suggest that syndicated dead tree comics as a viable means of self expression is totally played? If I were in your shoes, I'd zig instead of zagging, and continue to explore ways to self publish and promote. Your lulu.com compilations are a great first step. The old standby of t-shirts, thongs and coffee mugs via Cafe Press would be worth looking into.Tue, 06 Feb 2007 11:26:40 -0800
As far as I've seen, the best way to get your weekly strip syndicated is to make it a daily strip.Wed, 07 Feb 2007 12:15:28 -0800
Thanks everyone.
